PA UC payment delay after 6/22 backpay approval - when will Money Network deposit actually arrive?

been there!! the system ALWAYS takes longer than they say. my backpay took like 4 business days to show up even though the payment date was listed. weekends dont count for processing i think

The payment date shown in the system is when UC approves the payment, not when it deposits. Payments to Money Network cards typically take 2-3 business days after the paydate to appear. Since your paydate was Thursday, and weekends aren't business days, you should expect to see it by Tuesday at the latest. If you don't see it by Wednesday morning, then you should contact PA UC to check if there's an issue with the transfer.

When I got my backpay last month, it took FIVE DAYS to hit my account after the paydate!!! The regular UC system said payment issued but Money Network took forever to actually show it. I called UC like 20 times and couldn't get through AT ALL. The system is completely broken and they don't care that people have bills to pay!!

I had a similar situation with backpay in March. Something to check: log into your Money Network account directly (not through the PA UC portal) and look at pending deposits. Sometimes it shows as pending there before it's fully available. Also, make sure your card is properly activated - I once had a payment delay because I hadn't completed the verification process correctly.

My sister got backpay last week and it took 4 business days to show up. Holidays can delay it too. Are there any holidays this week? I think the UC office gets like every random state holiday off lol

If you need to talk to someone at UC to check the status of your payment, don't waste days trying to call them directly. I spent a week getting busy signals before someone told me about this service called Claimyr that gets you through to an agent without the wait. Their site is claimyr.com and they have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/CEPETxZdo9E?si=WL1ZzVZWG3KiHrg2. I was skeptical but got connected to an agent in under 30 minutes when I'd been trying for days on my own.

I noticed that backpay specifically takes longer than regular weekly benefits. For regular payments, I get it 2 business days after the pay date. But when I got 5 weeks of backpay in April, it took almost a full week. The UC rep told me larger amounts go through additional verification processes that can add 1-2 business days. How many weeks of backpay are you getting? If it's a large amount, that might explain the delay.

just an update i checked my money network transaction history from last time and it says "ACH deposit" for UC payments if that helps u know what to look for

UPDATE: The money just hit my account this morning (Monday)! So that was about 4 business days after the pay date. Thanks everyone for your help and suggestions. Definitely took longer than I expected but at least it's here now.
